If you wish to see the technical session on tasks - Creating and Managing GIS Data: ArcGIS Pro Tasks: An Introduction - YouTube   If a user performs repeatable workflows over and over again using tasks ,why would it be important to set the layers back to the entry state? Does that also include the selection state and automatically navigating the map to the same view point/extent? Thanks, The Esri Task team  ... View more

Great idea - under consideration. Should validate provide a warning if an optional field parameter is used in subsequent steps? Thanks, Amir ... View more

The new Traverse tool in ArcGIS Pro 1.3 creates 2 point lines with COGO attributes. To get started use this link. Amir ... View more

Hello David, In ArcGIS Pro 1.3 you can enter a traverse in feet and it will store the distance units using your state plane units (meters). All you have to do is define the default distance units for your project. Regardless you will be able to override those units to any units that the project allows. Amir ... View more

The new traverse tool in ArcGIS Pro 1.3 does not require you to specify if you are entering a straight line or a curve. It also has many useful handy shortcuts to gain maximum efficiency and is designed for a single hand entry (numbers keyboard) . This link can help you get started. Amir ... View more

In ArcGIS Pro 1.3 every course in the traverse is a 2 point line feature. You can export the attribute table to multiple formats (including excel) and extend the line feature class attribution to meet your business needs. Amir ... View more

Hi Jeff, With the new Traverse tool in Pro 1.3 you can specify your POB. Because every course is a feature in Pro, you can define an editing template for the connection lines from the commencement point to the point of beginning, then specify the POB (as Closing Point) and then enter the boundary lines that already know where they have to close. The closing of the traverse can also be done automatically based on a distance tolerance you configure. Amir ... View more

A new web application called "Parcel Drafter" will be released in a couple of months. It will use line and polygon feature services (hosted from ArcGIS Online or from your on premise ArcGIS Server). We will demo it on the Land Records Meetup ... View more

We would love to get your feedback on the Traverse functionality in the current release (1.3) as well as future releases. We are not sure the re-ordering of courses will make it to the next release (1.4) but it is on our road map for traverse. We can rephrase "saving a polygon for each traverse" to "every polygon (parcel) has it's own set of lines". That is also on the orad map for parcel editing in Pro. BTW - using python one can easily select lines and export them to multiple formats, including a text file. Reading tabular information and populating a traverse is part of the future SDK capabilities. Thanks, Amir ... View more

Thanks Sarah, So if I understand it correctly the text files were used to save lengthy description and pick it up / modify an error at a later time. In Pro, each course is saved as a 2 point line feature. The next release of Pro (1.4) will also allow you to select any sequence of courses and modify them as a traverse. Given that option would you still need to save them as a text file? Thanks, Amir ... View more

Hello Sarah, Could you please share with us what is the source of the text file you are trying to read from? Or are you trying to save it to a text file and then read from the saved text file? If it is the latter, the COGO values are stored on the COGO fields as soon as you save your edits. Are you using the text file as a backup to your geodatabase? Thanks, Amir ... View more

The parcel fabric does support overlapping parcels from the same type (e.g. historic tax parcels) or different parcel types (e.g. subdivisions and tax parcels). If you have unintended overlaps and gaps it could be due to the following reasons: It was always a problem and migrated that way - in this case consider remigrating the data. Having good data integrity and vertical alignment between parcels is highly recommended for data migration. There is a variety of tools and procedures you can apply to your data prior to data migration depending on your source data. Missing line points - After data migration we recommend running the merge courses tool to create line points. After line points are created, you will not see a gap/overlap a line that has other parcel corners along it moves ("T junctions without breaking the line). Bad Join links - if a join line of any type is missed you might see overlaps and gaps when any of the parcels move. the fix is easy - use rejoin to create and link that was missed. You can also contact technical support to work on your specific issue Amir ... View more

It certainly depends on the amount and extent of data you are adjusting as well as on the number of displacment vectors that got created in your parcel fabric. If you think it takes too long please contact technical support. If you created data outside of the spatial extent by mistake, it can also have negative impact on the associated features adjustment.
